Max Mara Black Balloon-Sleeve Smock Shirt Dress (RRP £200) | Authentic & Preloved

An effortlessly elegant black dress from Max Mara, combining the house’s refined Italian aesthetic with a relaxed, contemporary silhouette.

Cut in a loose, fluid smock shape, the dress features a classic pointed shirt collar opening into a V-neckline. The standout detail is the voluminous long sleeves, which are gathered around the elbow before expanding into dramatic balloon-shaped cuffs. Fine ties at the cuffs allow the shape to be adjusted.

Long neck ties finished with decorative beads and tassels lend a subtle bohemian element to the otherwise minimalist design. The generous cut falls to approximately knee/midi length, with a softly curved shirt-style hem and side splits adding movement.
